Coroner's office releases ID of Vallejo pedestrian killed in street

The Solano County Coroner's Office on Monday released the identification of the woman hit and killed Saturday by a pickup truck. Marlyn Madison, 60, of Vallejo was pronounced dead at the scene.

Madison was crossing the street at about 6:30 p.m. Saturday on Sonoma Boulevard at Winchester Street when she was struck by a pickup truck traveling south on Sonoma Boulevard.

The impact propelled her about 80 feet from her original position, police said.

The truck's driver was taken to police headquarters for questioning and was identified as a 28-year-old Pittsburg man. Police said he was cooperative, and was released pending results of blood tests to determine if he was under the influence.

Six street lights were out around the area of the accident.

It was not immediately known if speed was a factor in the incident, and the case remains under investigation.
